Environmental Awareness @ JHU

As the need to maintain the environment becomes a more and more pressing issue, many institutions are resorting to eco-friendly practices. In Johns Hopkins, some elements of the school help the environment. Most garbage bins have a complementary recycle bin for bottles and cans. In the buildings, there are also bins separating each type of garbage. There are 4 Flexcars on campus, though I do not know if they are used often since they have to be rented. The emergency vans which retrieve people from streets seem like a carpooling alternative. So, the school has made measures to help out the environment best as possible.
As for energy sources and other information, I do not know if the college is doing its best for environmental protection. That realm is beyond my knowing. But in general, the school is very clean and presentable.
Help save the environment, and you will help save mankind.
